We look at the division of 124917 by 38 
We want to divide 124917 by 38.

Step 1:
38 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 38

On to step 2:
12 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 124 / 38

Advancing to step 3:
38 goes into 124 3 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 114 from 124 leaves us with 10.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 109 / 38

Advancing to step 4:
109 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 33.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 76 from 109 to get 33.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 331 / 38

Advancing to step 5:
The number 38 fits into 331 8 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 328.0
If we take 304 away from 331, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 277 / 38

On to step 6:
The number 38 fits into 277 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3287.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 266 from 277.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
110 divided by 38 is 2 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3287.2
If we take 76 away from 110, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 38, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3287.28
Subtract 304 from 340 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
38 goes into 360 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3287.289
Subtract 342 from 360 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
38 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3287.2894
Subtract 152 from 180 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 280 by 38, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3287.28947
If we take 266 away from 280, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 12:
38 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3287.289473
Deduct 114 from 140 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 260 by 38, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3287.2894736
Deduct 228 from 260 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 38 fits into 320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3287.28947368
If we take 304 away from 320, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3287.28947368, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
